韓国で発生したn番部屋事件を受け、「n番部屋防止法」が可決され、オンライン性犯罪に対する処罰が強化された。

しかし今回、84万4000人の会員を持つ韓国最大の女性専用コミュニティで、男性の外見や身体的特徴を詳細に論評し共有する「女性版n番部屋事件」が起きた。

このような行為は名誉毀損や個人情報の無断公開に当たり、法的処罰の可能性がある。女性コミュニティの行為は、性的商品化への批判をしつつ、自ら同様の行為をしているとの批判が出ている。

女性時代(여성시대)と呼ばれる約85万人の会員を持ち、30代以上のおばちゃんたちが利用するコミュニティサイトで、一般人や軍人の個人情報を10年以上にわたって密かに流布し、お互いに共有し、男性に対するセクハラをしてきた。

3回以上、その件について公論化しようとする試みがあったが、マスコミはすでに未婚の30代女性が絶対多数を占めており、政治家も彼らの味方であったため、何の記事すら出てこなかった。

そのサイトは住民登録のような個人情報で加入することができ、サーバーが韓国にあったため、このような性犯罪は摘発できたはずなのに、何の措置も取られなかった。このような異常現象に対して、男性たちは、女性団体と政府、マスコミ、公権力が団結して意図的に沈黙していると考えた。

兵士と自国の男性を奴隷、生贄と考える韓国に希望を失った男性たちは、国内メディアではなく、海外サイトに情報を発信し始めた。たまたま、被害者がアメリカ人男性であったため、今になってその事態を取り上げた記事が一つだけ出てきた。

Im Korean American who served for 8 years including Korea. I speak Korean language as well so i would like to warn you guys, especially for those in Korea, about your personal/privacy information getting shared amongst local Korean women community(radical feminist’s). Radical feminists in Korea were being infamous of sharing men’s personal/privacy information within their online community, called Women’s generation(Yeo-seong-si-dae) in Daum Kakao club. However, they recently started to share foreigners information as well including military members stationed in Korea.

1st photo shows a military member’s selfie with discriminating his racial background. This post says, ‘did anyone slept with this guy? he is in Camp Humphreys and told to be in Air force. But can Alah people be in the military? How do i confirm if he is muslim or not?’ Also, the comments are sharing his privacy information including the body odor smells, size of his winnie, and etc.

2nd photo shows a pilot who is stationed in Seongnam(K9). The post says, ‘he is a pilot stationed in Seongnam. Does anyone know him?’ And the comment says, ‘he looks delicious’.

3rd photo is their own databook solely about military memebers stationing in Korea. It was told to have total 3 pages of personal information with individuals’ name, duty station, sexual orientation, personality, sexual preferences, penis’s size, and personal behaviors and patterns.

I am not sure if MI is tracking about this info, but you guys should be cautious of getting your information shared that can possibly use for spear phishing or even worse.

Are YOU Ready For The Unstoppable Rise In Metal, Oil and Food Prices?

Of course, it helps that the current ever expanding war (COVID clot shots being the opening salvo) has now gone increasingly kinetic as Israel bombed the Iranian embassy in Syria (an act of war by international standards), followed by the Iranians lobbing a few drones their way.

We’ve got European dolts ramping up to go to battle with the Russian bear, Western politicians and 'leaders' thinking they can isolate Russia (a major nuclear and industrial superpower!), but then the Israelis have figured out that the obvious loss of this Ukrainian war (those still believing that Ukraine is winning being solely of the “CNN is the truth” mindset — in other words lobotomised) puts them in an awkward position.

You see, they are surrounded by enemies and supported by the mighty US military. That military is proving itself a tad weak now. Failing to quell the African states breaking away from the clutches of Western powers, and now the aforementioned obvious failure in Ukraine.

So what is Netanyahu to do? He’s hated domestically, and his reputation now hinges on defeating Hamas, but defeating Hamas I’d argue is practically impossible. But men backed into corners tend to make completely irrational decisions, and so here we are. The Israelis possibly figure that they need to destroy Iran and their enemies now, before the US loses all its credibility and fighting prowess.

The issue, of course, is that both Russia and China see that as problematic for them and will step in to support Iran. This is already happening. That useless rag the Washington Post called it a “desperate alignment.”

A distraction that’s needed to divert attention from the fact that the Russkies are solidly winning that war.

All of this is obviously positive for the price of metals, oil, and most anything in the supply chain.

MY COMMENT: Propaganda Report Rebuked

DEFENSE SEC WARNS OF NATO RUSSIA WAR.

MY COMMENT: This is both arrogant and stupid! A war with Russia at a time we have deep political division in our country, completely open borders with millions of foreigners able to infiltrate our country, a drained strategic oil reserve supply, lack of manufacturing capacity due to decades of outsourcing and the lowest military recruitment crisis this country has ever seen, while our educational system is dumbed down to the point half the high school students cannot read or write anymore, where the youth cannot comprehend there are two genders anymore, etc…. this a recipe for catastrophic loss. America would fall, and so would Europe, and the hell if anyone sane is going to fight to keep this collapsing disaster-of-a-failed empire afloat!

MOSCOW FLOODS WEST WITH MIGRANTS

MY COMMENT: What a fucking stupid LIE! If Western governments wanted to close the borders and stop illegals from pouring in THEY WOULD HAVE DONE SO ALREADY YEARS AGO! They have not. They have been protested and confronted and our own governments STILL REFUSE to protect our borders! Gaslighting LYING trash! Anyone who believes that lie is dumber than a rock! We'll know it could be true when our governments actually close the border - and they won't!

'WEAPONIZE' FLOW TO INFLUENCE ELECTIONS

MY COMMENT: Exactly what the DNC has planned, allow the illegals to vote, and eventually replace the natural born citizenry who have been BETRAYED!

Our real enemy is within our own countries!

American Airmen Hoist Flag For Russia And Burn Themselves Alive For Palestinians

A foreboding new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting corrupt socialist Western colonial puppet leader Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky acknowledged yesterday that President Putin urged him to stop the hostilities in Donbass in 2019, says the reason hostilities weren’t stopped before they erupted into a full-scale conflict was because the United States was secretly preparing for war against Russia—a fact confirmed by the leftist New York Times yesterday, who admitted that the CIA built a network of 12 secret bases along the Russian border in Ukraine and revealed: “The C.I.A. and other American intelligence agencies provide intelligence for targeted missile strikes, track Russian troop movements and help support spy networks…But the partnership is no wartime creation, nor is Ukraine the only beneficiary…It took root a decade ago, coming together in fits and starts under three very different U.S. presidents, pushed forward by key individuals who often took daring risks…It has transformed Ukraine, whose intelligence agencies were long seen as thoroughly compromised by Russia, into one of Washington’s most important intelligence partners against the Kremlin today”.

Though the American peoples weren’t informed that their demonic warmongering government has been secretly planning a suicidal war against the world’s largest nuclear weapons power Russia for over the past decade, this report notes, it was well known and long planned for by Moscow, which is why top Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov just factually observed about the economic dimensions of the conflict: “Russia’s economy has shown its immunity, and in this case, it has been stated not by us but by US representatives…Russia’s economy has demPost too long.

In opposition to their own deranged and demented commander-in-chief Socialist Leader Biden, this report details, last week it saw a United States Air Force veteran, who served 10 years in Afghanistan, joining Russian forces in the liberation of Avdeevka, where he raised a US flag and told his fellow Americans to learn the truth—an act of heroic defiance against needless warmongering joined by active duty United States Air Force airman Aaron Bushnell, who in full uniform yesterday, set himself ablaze in front of the Israeli Embassy in Washington D.C., and whose no doubt final words were: “Free Palestine!…Free Palestine!…Free Palestine!”.

https://pravda-en.com/world/2024/02/24/339359.html

https://taskandpurpose.com/news/man-sets-self-fire-israeli-embassy-air-force/

As to the extent of the demonic siege unleashed upon Americans by Socialist Leader Biden, this report concludes, it was horrifyingly revealed yesterday: “Anti-Christian hatred is accelerating in the United States, according to a Christian nonprofit that has tracked violence against U.S. churches since 2018…The Washington, D.C.-based Family Research Council (FRC) released its annual Hostility Against Churches report last week, finding there were 436 hostile incidents against churches in 2023…This is more than double the number tracked in 2022 and more than eight times as many as the group found in 2018”—but even in these darkest of times, the American peoples were just reminded: “President Trump won the White House with the backing of the American people and shocked the world….The following day after the Florida rally, Father Giacomo Capoverdi shared a fascinating story about the Hermit of Loreto, Italy who predicted the Donald Trump presidency back in the 1980s…The holy man of Loretto shared a premonition that President Donald Trump would help bring America back to God…This was decades before Trump even decided to run for US President”.

Crime Statistics Now Being Censored In The USSA, Makes Corrupt Leadership Look Bad

With the November election less than 7 months away, mainstream media outlets are now choosing to misrepresent the current state of crime in the United States, claiming that crime is declining without providing evidence or details.

As the Daily Caller reports, there are two ways in which the federal government measures crime in the United States: The Bureau of Justice Statistics’ (BJS) National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR).

Whereas the NCVS asks roughly 240,000 Americans whether or not they’ve been a victim of crime in the last year, the UCR focuses on crimes that have been reported to police within the last year and shared with the FBI.

While more people are reporting to the BJS that they have been the victims of crime, the FBI is reporting fewer crimes through the UCR.

The UCR claims that violent crime dropped by 2% from 2021 to 2022, while the NCVS shows the exact opposite, reporting that the number of victims of violent crime increased by a staggering 42.4% from 2021 to 2022; this constitutes a rise from 16.5 victims per 1,000 people to 23.5 victims per 1,000.

Nevertheless, many mainstream media outlets such as CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, Reuters, and The Hill have all turned to the FBI’s data to claim, falsely, that crime is on the decline. All such reports have failed to mention the crucial data from the NCVS.

Even Joe Biden himself has turned to deliberately misrepresenting the facts by relying solely on the FBI’s data.

This directly contradicts broad public sentiment in the United States, with a Gallup poll in December finding that 77% of Americans believe crime is getting worse.

US Joint Chief of Staff Mark Milley: Palestinian Civilians? Kill 'Em ALL, FAST.

Former US Joint Chief of Staff Mark Milley explained that the Israelis' mistake is that they are killing civilians too slowly:

“I feel terribly sorry for the innocent people in Gaza who are dying. But we must not forget that we, the United States, have killed many innocent people in Mosul in Iraq, and that we, the United States, killed 12 thousand innocent French civilians. We destroyed 69 Japanese cities, not including Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

We killed people in huge numbers, innocent people who had nothing to do with the government. Men, women and children.

War is a terrible thing, but if it has any meaning, if it has any sense of morality, it must have a political purpose, and it must be achieved quickly and at the least cost. And you must do it quickly.

Wow. This psycho just said he agrees past war crimes are "a terrible thing", and he feels "terribly sorry" all while justifying genocide and war crimes against the innocent. This is flat out hypocrisy and at a psychotic level. Imagine the horror if other superpowers thought it would one day be "a terrible thing" but A OK to kill American citizens the same way. This is the kind of sinister evil the Zionist neo-cons are trying to deliver to the world.

Canada To Ban Free Speech COMPLETELY, Imprison Any Current & Past Online Dissent

The Trudeau regime has introduced an Orwellian new law called the Online Harms Bill C-63, which will give police the power to retroactively search the Internet for ‘hate speech’ violations and arrest offenders, even if the offence occurred before the law existed.

Revolver.news reports: The real shocker in this bill is the alarming retroactive aspect. Essentially, whatever you’ve said in the past can now be weaponized against you by today’s draconian standards.

Historian Dr. Muriel Blaive has weighed in on this draconian law, labeling it outright “mad.” She points out how it literally spits in the face of all Western legal traditions, especially the one about only being punished if you infringed on a law that was valid at the time of committing a crime.

The Canadian law proposal is outright mad. It is retroactive, which goes against all our Western legal tradition, according to which you can be punished only if you infringed a law that was valid at the time when you committed a crime: “And it isn’t just stuff you’ve posted after the new law comes into force you can get into trouble for – oh, no – but anything you’ve posted, ever, dating back to the dawn of the internet. In other words, it’s a gold-embossed invitation to offence archaeologists to do their worst, with the prospect of a $20,000 reward if they hit paydirt. The only way to protect yourself is to go through all your social media accounts and painstakingly delete anything remotely controversial you’ve ever said.”

And there is worse!

“Although, that won’t protect you from another clause in the bill – and this is where it trips over into as yet unimagined dystopian territory. If the courts believe you are likely to commit a ‘hate crime’ or disseminate ‘hate propaganda’ (not defined), you can be placed under house arrest and your ability to communicate with others restricted. That is, a court can force you to wear an ankle bracelet, prevPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Brazen Election Interference: Illinois Democrats Retroactively Ban Republican Challengers

As an alternative to a primary election, Illinois law allowed for a party to get its candidates on the ballot for General Assembly spots by party slating procedure, along with collection of a requisite number of public signatures on nominating positions. A number of Republican challengers have been proceeding accordingly.

But over the course of just 30 hours on the first days of this month, the Democratic supermajority changed the law to retroactively disallow that procedure, thereby barring challengers from the November ballot as Republican party candidates.

The new law almost certainly gives Democrats a win in races in which Republicans did not run a candidate in the primary and could result in dozens of unopposed races.

Gov. JB signed the new law the day after it was passed, hours after telling reporters he didn’t know all the details. He also claimed it was an “ethics” bill.

“It really does make sure that we don’t have backroom deals to put people on the ballot and run as a result of some small group of people in a smoke-filled room making the choice,” Pritzker said at an unrelated news conference in Bloomington.

“So I think to me, more transparency is better.” It’s not like Illinois Democrats ever line up their chosen candidates to run for the party, right?

“This is nothing more than a brazen attempt by Illinois Democrats to disenfranchise voters and eliminate political competition. To hide behind the guise of ‘ethics,’ is laughable,” said Sean M. Morrison, Chairman of the Cook County GOP.

Senate Minority Leader John Curran (R-Downers Grove) said it right:

“This abuse of power that blocks candidates from giving voters a choice in free, fair and open elections is unprecedented in Illinois’ 205-year history,” Curran said. “Their dictator-style tactic of stealing an election bePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>At least one Democrat couldn’t ignore the hypocrisy. “At this time in our history, when we are watching Republican legislatures across the country really attack access to the ballot and attack voting rights and fundamentally attack democracy, I just think it’s fundamentally wrong for Democrats to participate in something that makes it harder for people to run, to run for office, makes it harder for folks to engage,” Rep. Kelly Cassidy (D-Chicago) said.

Having voter ID laws does not prohibit people from voting, it only prohibits people from cheating. We have voter ID laws in my State, all that means they know I live in the State and county I vote in, I'm not just some outsider going from one area to another and illegally voting elsewhere trying to impose my politics into other areas. Voter ID laws are sane and common sense to prevent fraud and abuse. That's my two cents.

Social media is "partially responsible" for the widespread international criticism of Israel’s conduct during its military campaign in Gaza, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has suggested.

The top American diplomat made the comment during an exchange with Senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah) at the McCain Institute’s 2024 Sedona Forum in Sedona, Arizona on Friday.

Romney asked Blinken why “the PR [has] been so awful” for Israel amid the conflict in Gaza. “Why has [Palestinian armed group] Hamas disappeared in terms of public perception? An offer is on the table to have a ceasefire, and yet the world is screaming about Israel,” he said. “Typically, the Israelis are good at PR. What’s happened here?” Romney said.

The Secretary of State recalled that when he started working in Washington in the early 1990s “everyone did the same thing,” which was reading newspapers like The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, and watching national news networks to get information about world events.

But now, in the 2020s, “we are on an intravenous feed of information with new impulses, inputs every millisecond” and social media “has dominated the narrative,” he said.

"And you have a social media ecosystem environment in which context, history, facts get lost, and the emotion, the impact of images dominates. And we can’t – we can’t discount that, but I think it also has a very, very, very challenging effect on the narrative,” Blinken suggested.

However, he also stressed that another reason for Israel’s bad PR was the “the inescapable reality of people who have and continue to suffer grievously in Gaza. And that’s real and we have to… be focused on that and attentive to that.”

White House Finally Stands Up To Netanyahu, Refuses To Arm Israel If Rafah Attacked

The Biden administration last week put a hold on a shipment of US-made ammunition to Israel, two Israeli officials told Axios.

It is the first time since the Oct. 7 attack that the US has stopped a weapons shipment intended for the Israeli military.

The incident raised serious concerns inside the Israeli government and sent officials scrambling to understand why the shipment was held, Israeli officials said.

Biden is facing sharp criticism among Americans who oppose his support of Israel. The administration in February asked Israel to provide assurances that US-made weapons were being used by Israel Defense Forces in Gaza in accordance with international law. Israel provided a signed letter of assurances in March.

Israel has intent to invade the southern Gaza city of Rafah where more than one million displaced Palestinians have been taking shelter.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released several statements in recents days saying he intended to order an invasion of Rafah regardless of whether Israel and Hamas reach a deal for the release of hostages being held in Gaza and a ceasefire.

US involvement with Israeli war crimes have caused massive amounts of anti-war protests across the US. With leftists typically going out and protesting en mass, many conservatives are openly refusing to support Israel's endeavors vowing to never fight any more wars on behalf of the US government or Israel. This calamity has led to the biggest loss of US Army recruitment in decades and destabilization and loss of trust within the universities and educational system. The consequences and blowback for all this unnecessary foreign intervention could be long lasting and rapidly undermine US hegemony around the globe.

Last Wednesday US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Israel and had a "tough" conversation with Netanyahu regarding a possible Israeli operation iPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Europe Scraps Unaffordable, Unsustainable 'Net Zero' Energy Policy

You know you’ve stumbled through the looking glass when European politicians start sounding saner on climate policy than the Americans do. Well here we are, Alice: Europeans are admitting the folly of net zero quicker than their American peers.

The latest example, or perhaps “victim”, is more apt—is Humza Yousaf, who resigned this week as Scotland’s first minister. That region within the UK enjoys substantial devolved powers over its own affairs, including on climate policy. An administration led by Mr. Yousaf’s left-leaning Scottish National Party had hoped to rush ahead of the national government in London in slashing carbon emissions.

Until, that is, someone noticed the costs. A recent report from the UK’s Climate Change Committee noted Scotland had fallen far behind on its climate goals. The government aimed to reduce by 20% the aggregate distance driven by Scottish motorists, compared with 2019 levels, but had no plan to accomplish the reduction in personal mobility by the 2030 deadline. To get back on track with the government’s goal of a transition to home electric heat pumps, Scotland would have to replace natural-gas fire boilers at a rate of more than 80,000 households a year by the end of the decade. That’s a big ask considering that in 2023 it managed 6,000 boiler replacements. The government resisted imposing an aviation tax to discourage excess flying. And so on.

Mr. Yousaf did the only thing he could under the circumstances: He all but abandoned net zero. His administration announced it is ditching firm annual emission-reduction targets in favor of fuzzier “carbon budgets.” The Green Party, with which Mr. Yousaf’s SNP governed in a coalition, balked. After a series of political machinations that were one part “Macbeth” and two parts “Comedy of Errors,” Mr. Yousaf’s administration collapsed and he was forced to resign.

Observe two salient details. First, the specific list of targets the country was missing. Scotland had reached the point where further net-zero progress would have made obvious and material demands of household budgets. Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
